Transcriptional profile of brain TRM in Toxoplasma gondii infection

ABSTRACT: During chronic infection memory T cells acquire a unique phenotype and become dependent on different survival signals than those needed for memory T cells generated during an acute infection. The distinction between the role of effector and memory T cells in an environment of persistent antigen remains unclear. Here, in the context of chronic Toxoplasma gondii infection we demonstrate that a population of CD8 T cells exhibiting a tissue resident memory (TRM) phenotype persists in the brain. We show that this population is distributed throughout the brain in both parenchymal and extraparenchymal spaces. Furthermore, this population is transcriptionally distinct and exhibits a transcriptional signature consistent with the TRM observed in acute viral infections.

Molecular signature of brain resident memory CD8+ T cells

Project description:Tissue resident memory (Trm) represent a newly described memory T cell population. We have previously characterized a population of Trm that persists within the brain following acute virus infection. Although capable of providing marked protection against a subsequent local challenge, brain Trm do not undergo recall expansion following dissociation from the tissue. Furthermore, these Trm do not depend on the same survival factors as the circulating memory T cell pool as assessed either in vivo or in vitro. To gain greater insight into this population of cells we compared the gene-expression profiles of Trm isolated from the brain to circulating memory T cells isolated from the spleen following an acute virus infection. Trm displayed altered expression of genes involved in chemotaxis, expressed a distinct set of transcription factors and overexpressed several inhibitory receptors. Cumulatively, these data indicates that Trm are a distinct memory T cell population disconnected from the circulating memory T cell pool and displaying a unique molecular signature which likely results in optimal survival and function within their local environment. 13 samples were analyzed: 5 replicates of memory OT-I CD8+.CD103- T cells isolated from the spleen of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA. 5 replicates of memory OT-I CD8+CD103+ T cells isolated from the brain of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA; and 3 replicates of memory OT-I.CD8+ CD103- T cells isolated from the brain of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA

Side population phenotype in quiescent human/murine tissue resident memory (TRM) T cells: Role of ABC transporters and NR4A1 in TRM biology

Project description:The ability to detect and isolate human CD8 TSP (Side population), NaÃ¯ve, Effector memory (EM), Central memory (CM) cells allowed us to compare the global gene expression profiles of these cells. Human TSP cells comprise of distinct gene expression profile specifically enriched for genes overexpressed in TRM cells. RNA samples from CD8 TSP (Side population), NaÃ¯ve, Effector memory (EM), Central memory (CM) cells were amplified, labeled, and hybridized on the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarray chips. The data were analyzed with GeneSpring GX 12.5 (Agilent Technologies)

Bulk RNA sequencing of TCM, TEM, and TRM from CD8+CD44+GP33+ T cells after LCMV infection

Project description:During acute infections, CD8+ T cells form various memory subpopulations to provide long-lasting protection against reinfection. Central memory (TCM), Effector memory (TEM), and long-lived effector (LLE) cells are circulating memory populations with distinct plasticity, migration patterns, and effector functions. Tissue-resident memory (TRM) cells permanently reside in the frontline sites of pathogen entry and provide tissue-specific protection upon reinfection. Here, using scRNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq, we examined the different and shared transcriptomes and regulators of TRMs with other circulating memory populations. Furthermore, we identified heterogeneity within the TRM pool from small intestine and novel transcriptional regulators that may control the phenotypic and functional heterogeneity of TRM cells during acute infection. Our findings provide a resource for future studies to identify novel pathways for enhancing vaccination and immunotherapeutic approaches.

Effector TH17 cells give rise to long-lived TRM cells that are essential for an immediate response against bacterial infection

Project description:Mucosal barrier surfaces serve as the critical first line of defense separating our bodies from the plethora of pathogenic microorganisms that inhabit our environment. Adaptive immunity provides life-long protection through the generation of a central and effector memory T-cell pool, memory B cells and the recently described population of tissue resident memory cells (TRM). The cellular origin of TRM CD4 cells is unknown and the contribution of this CD4 memory population to host defense still remains elusive. By using IL-17A tracking-fate-mouse models we found that a significant fraction of the CD4 TRM cells derive from IL-17A producing effector (TH17) cells following primary immunization. Maintenance of these resting exTH17 TRM cells is mediated by IL-7, produced by lymphatic endothelial cells. During a memory response, we show that neither antibodies, nor gd T cells, nor circulatory memory T cells are sufficient for the rapid host defense required to eliminate the pathogen. Using parabiosis and depletion studies, we demonstrated that CD4 exTH17 TRM cells play an important role in respiratory defense and bacterial clearance. Upon infection, exTH17 TRM cells rapidly produce IL-17A and IFN-γ to promote neutrophil infiltration and bacterial clearance. These studies delineate the origin, function and importance of airway CD4 TRM cells during bacterial infection, offering novel strategies for targeted vaccine design, which is especially imperative for those pathogens that are resistant to antibiotic treatment.

Intestinal CD103- Trm cells are first responders to secondary infection

Project description:To address both the plasticity of intestinal Trm subsets and their unique contributions to tissue and systemic immunity, we have generated mice to fate map CD103+ Trm cells after primary infection and follow their location and functionality during secondary infection. We found that the intestinal CD103– Trm subset are the primary responders to secondary infection and observed limited expansion of the CD103+ Trm subset. To understand the unique features of CD103– Trm cells that allow this population to respond more quickly to secondary infection and to understand the gene expression changes that accompany Trm reactivation, we performed RNA-sequencing on CD103+Tomato+ and CD103–Tomato– LP Trm cells.

Hobit identifies TRM precursors that are regulated by Eomes

Project description:Tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells (TRM) constitute a non-circulating memory T cell subset that provides early protection against re-infection. However, how TRM arise from antigen-triggered T cells has remained unclear. Exploiting the TRM-restricted expression of Hobit, we developed TRM reporter/deleter mice to study TRM differentiation. We found that Hobit was upregulated in a subset of LCMV-specific T cells located within peripheral tissues during the effector phase of the immune response. These Hobit+ effector T cells were identified as TRM precursors, given that their depletion substantially decreased TRM development, but not the formation of circulating memory T cells. Adoptive transfer experiments of Hobit+ effector T cells corroborated their biased contribution to the TRM lineage. Transcriptional profiling of Hobit+ effector T cells underlined the early establishment of TRM properties including downregulation of tissue exit receptors and upregulation of TRM-associated molecules. Importantly, we identified Eomes as a key factor instructing the early bifurcation of circulating and resident lineages. These findings establish that commitment of TRM occurs early in antigen-driven T cell differentiation and reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying this differentiation pathway.

Exhausted-like CD8 resident memory T cells balance immunity and fibrotic sequelae

Project description:CD8 tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) provide frontline immunity in mucosal tissues. The mechanisms regulating CD8 TRM maintenance, heterogeneity, protective and pathological functions are largely elusive. Here we identify an epitope-specific CD8 TRM population that is maintained by in situ MHC-I and B7 signaling following acute influenza infection. These TRM cells co-exhibit exhausted-like phenotypes and memory features, and provide heterologous immunity against secondary infection. PD-L1 blockade at the memory stage promotes exhausted-like TRM rejuvenation and secondary immunity at the cost of developing post-infection fibrotic sequelae. Increased numbers of CD8 TRM cells are observed in the lungs of pulmonary fibrosis patients compared to control patients. Thus, TRM exhaustion results from a tissue-specific cellular adaptation to balance fibrotic sequelae and secondary immunity.

Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of CD8+ brain TRM during CNS autoimmunity

Project description:CD8+ TRM are described in autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases. However, we still lack knowledge about mechanisms regulating TRM reactivation, in particular in autoimmune diseases. Here, we investigated in a model of TRM-driven central nervous system autoimmunity the transcriptional landscape of self-reactive brain TRM and the requirement of these cells for CD4+ T cell help.
